Umm .. deleted on request...

He can be PM with dual if he likes. No "can't" just "shouldn't, IMHO" If you consider my opinion a slap in the face I would suggest de-sensitization training. Really. No one is talking about forcing Mr Dion to do anything. Some of us, including me, think that to appear to represent Canada...

IMHO. This should be a no brainer. What is the use of his French citizenship? Does he not have enough privileges and rights as a Canadian? If he wants to lead Canada he should be a Canadian, renounce France, and get on with it. When he gets defeated he can re-apply. No big. Or at least it...

An honourable man, with a long and illustrious career, caught in a tough spot, did the honourable thing. Now that's out of the way one would hope the 'system' gets down to the tough work of finding a replacement, figgering out what went wrong and fixing it.

Darn, Sorry Stephane that Pesky UN has beat you to it, such a drag, first stymied at your efforts to save the planet, now flummoxed at your design to become a latter day George Marshall..... From UNAMA General Assembly puts its weight behind Afghan reconstruction plan 29 November 2006 – The...

From yahoo.ca news General says Canadians ill-informed over Afghan debate, defends mission Tue Dec 5, 5:38 PM By Murray Brewster OTTAWA (CP) - The debate over Canada's role in Afghanistan has been ill-informed and bereft of facts, says the former commander of Canadian troops there...

Now, of course I couldn't use the term dupe as that would be an 'ad hominem'  :-*

WRT a_majoor's post, the Part 1 vid in particular. It's interesting to note the times at which Mr Juarez returns to his notes. He is quite clearly telling his own story, and thus can do so extemporaneously, however there are at least two occasions where he returns to notes. First, when...

From MacLeans, Shared under the Fair Dealings Provisions of the CopyRight Act RSC Note the date, Nov 20, it seems this was published during a lull in our conversations, interesting to see Mr Juarez's stance 'evolve'. Note also, Ruxted has made it to the big time ... quoted in MacLeans...

Both of which could be lived with, but the prospect of three months in Cornwall, yeeessshhhh

REF: geo's post above.... But can't we have sooo much more fun with this than the usual Res/Reg bun fight?? Fact is, the gent was in the Navy for a few years before moving to the green world. "Targets to your front ......" ;D

"De l'audace, encore, de l'audace, et toujours de l'audace"

Very much so. I have a PM or two on this issue and with this post and a few others would like to follow up, perhaps tonight. I think it's clear much learning is to be done, on all sides. From that understanding may follow.  Finally, someday, perhaps a solution or more correctly a set of...

Quite right, a real problem. It's clear that some framework exists to allow us to move forward. The reserves you mentioned are,at first glance and given my limited knowledge, candidates to move forward on. There are problems that are systemic, and I quite agree that if we are going to say to...

UberCree: for the FIFTH TIME I am not talking about forced relocation. I am talking about creating a reserve in a city that would allow natives to retain the benefits of reserve life (i.e having the cultural and social support network that is important to the aboriginal culture) whilst having...

Quite Possibly. But if the group using it has taken ownership, pays (property) taxes to keep it up, and has (local government level) authority I am not sure if in twenty years when that new water plant is required if the population around such an entity might just be a bit less compassionate at...

Yes. But here's the kicker, once it's done, it's done. Get some established communities up running with a chance at making it, BUT in twenty years when you need a new water plant, 'talk to the hand'. I guess I'm saying let's get rid of this welfare state, but in doing so, let's set up the...

I AM NOT ADVOCATING UPROOTING ANYONE. I AM ADVOCATING GIVING ABORIGINALS A LAND RESERVE IN OR NEAR A CITY THAT ALLOWS THEM TO VOLUNTARILY MIGRATE TO , IN ORDER TO VOLUNTARILY PARTICIPATE IN THE ECONOMY AND GET AWAY FROM THE SOCIAL PROBLEMS THAT ARISE FROM BEING ECONOMICALLY...

Sheesh, early twentieth century farming, with full-on plant and animal domestication is a full time job. But I agree 100% with your post Mr Sallows. That's why I would argue a solution allows individuals to voluntarily participate in the economy and that protects the culture is a solution.

Dood you are like so busted!!!!
